This study was done to know the effect of overloading vehicles on the road pavement and remaining service life of the pavement. In this study, the service life of pavement due to overloaded vehicles was analyzed using the AASHTO 1993. In Narayanghat-Mugling road the composition of traffic seems to be 83.76% heavy vehicles, 9.18% medium vehicle and 7.05% light vehicle. For the direction of Narayanghat-Mugling, the pavement service life might be reduced by 59.90% due to overloading condition, while for the opposite direction, the service life would not reduced caused by the same factor. The impact of overload conditions on the road pavement showed premature failure;that is, a condition which the damage reduced the life of roads before the design life of the road is reached. From the results, it can be concluded that overloaded vehicles on the road are very influential to the reduction in pavement service life. Therefore, it is expected that road users to comply with existing regulations in the conduct of transportation. As overloading is increasing, it has to be controlled by rules and regulations with penalty to control the overloading. So fines must be associated with intensified enforcement when considered in further strategy. Regular monitoring, inspection and enforcement are the effective ways to control overloading. Use of technology (Automatic overloading information system) may be the effective way to control the overloading.展开更多

The simulation results show that the performance of our presented mechanism in this paper is greatly improved, much better than that of the other three mechanisms： earliest deadline first （EDF）, highest value first （HVF） and highest density first （HDF）, under the same conditions of all nominal loads and task type proportions.展开更多

文摘为应对新能源机组随机波动导致的外送断面过载约束复杂多变的问题,提出一种计及新能源特性的自动发电控制(automatic generation control,AGC)断面越限预防和校正控制方法。首先,提出计及新能源特性、涵盖主站-厂站-机组三级架构的AGC断面功率越限控制模型;其次,基于潮流转移比矩阵快速计算N-1故障后线路负载率矩阵,快速评估AGC断面功率越限风险;最后,推导线路N-1故障后负载率相对发电机组出力的灵敏度,明确不同机组功率调节对断面功率的差异化影响,以新能源机组消纳最大、AGC机组调节量最小为控制原则,提出基于线路负载率灵敏度的AGC断面越限校正控制方法。在PSD Power Tools中搭建实际电网仿真算例验证了所提方法的正确性和有效性。
